# Help Needed

In the given figure , P , Q , R are 3 complex numbers . Angle PQR = $$\theta$$

How do I represent theta using only the amplitudes of the given complex numbers ?

Also if $$Z_1 Z_2 Z_3$$ be 3 complex numbers taken in the complex plane in the anticlockwise sense , then how can I represent the angle $$Z_1 Z_2 Z_3$$ in terms of the individual amplitudes of the complex numbers ?

P.S. The angles/amplitude part of the complex numbers is the only thing that has kept me confused , the other parts ar clear to me . Please help me out !!

Sort by:

I'm assuming that by amplitudes you mean magnitudes. I don't know if there is an equation exclusively in terms of the magnitudes, but this link discusses the dot product adapted for complex vectors, from which you can determine $$\theta.$$ · 1 year, 11 months ago

Thanks for the link sir . But I was referring to the angle made by the complex number with the origin sir as in argument of a complex number .

I am not able to understand the concept of arg $$\frac{Z_1 - Z_2}{Z_3-Z_2}$$ , what does it mean and how to use it in calculations ? This is my doubt sir , please see the pic that I have provided sir ? · 1 year, 11 months ago
